In 2007, for the first time in a long time, since the Toledo model, Pelikan introduced a new model Majesty: the M7000 and the M7005. Both are massive pens that incorporate a piston filler mechanism concealed in a sterling silver sleeve; the M7000 features a sterling silver cap and body with gold-plated accents and a two-tone nib. Based on this model, a limited edition of 170 fountain pens was released in 2008 to commemorate the company's 170th anniversary. It has three diamonds embedded in the pelican nest on the cap top and is entirely gold-plated. The nib was also monotone gold. The M7005, on the other hand, has eliminated gold plating and is characterized by its black resin cap and monotone nib.

Both the M7000 and the M7005 feature a Jugendstil⁽¹⁾ style frieze on the cap top, a design taken directly from the façade of the stone walls of the Pelikan headquarters factory in Hanover, Germany, and depicts a pelican motif (Pelikan’s Perch)(Fig.3-3). The sleeve is striped and uneven, recalling the striped shafts of Pelikan's traditional Souverän model. The sleeve creates a sense of unity in the design, but opinions may differ because the traditional ink window is not directly visible. The barrel that secures the sleeve have a locking mechanism that makes a clicking sound at the end of the rotation (Fig.4). The sterling silver is platinum coated throughout, making it resistant to tarnishing. Turning the sleeve to remove it from the body shaft reveals a large ink chamber, a piston, and a turning knob. The section and piston knob are also made of sterling silver. The beak clip is spring-loaded. The cap band is stamped "Pelikan Germany Ag925" and the cap top is adorned with the current Pelikan single-chick logo (Fig.3-2). The cap has a plastic inner cap that prevents the section and the turning knob from being scratched when capped or posted. The nib is the same size as the M600, but the nib of the Majesty has a slightly wider shoulder (Fig.5-2). The scrollwork of the nib is concentric (Fig.2-1), which sets it apart from the Souverän model, and may be an attempt to match the Jugendstil style of the cap. As can be inferred from the metal construction, the pen is quite heavy for its size, with the M7000 weighing about 62 g, much heavier than the M1000; posting is possible, but in that case the pen's center of gravity is further back. In size, on the other hand, the Majesty is slightly larger than the M600 and slightly smaller than the M800 (Fig.5-1).

As indicated by the model numbers and the catalog of the time (where, the Majesty was introduced first before the Toledo and theSouverän), the Majesty was positioned as the top-of-the-line pens over the models Toledo and Souverän (Pelikan-collectibles). At the same time, the cartridge filler Ductus was also launched. Probably, Pelikan planned to market its top-of-the-line fountain pens as a dual line of the Majesty and the Ductus (Fig.6). However, the launch of the Majesty drew mixed reactions, and like its counterpart the Ductus, opinions were split down the middle: the nib is small, the price is too high, and so on (Pelikan’s Perch, Fountain Pen Network, Fountain Pen Network). In the end, the Majesty was not well received by the market? Production ended in 2012.

Unfortunately, no new models with piston fillers have been developed since then, and most of the fountain pens released since then have been "self-reproduction" of the existing Souverän and Classic model or reproduction of the vintage models. I hope to see another fountain pen with an ambitious and innovative design/mechanism.

Note;⁽¹⁾Jugendstil was a German artistic movement, the counterpart of Art Nouveau, active from 1895 to 1910. The movement developed as a reaction against the historicism and neoclassicism of the official art and architecture academies and was most active in the fields of graphic art and interior design. Jugend Stiehl's main goal was to combine beauty and pleasure with practicality, based on the principle of unity of composition and decoration. Jugend Stiehl in art and craft design is characterized by soft curves and motifs such as flora, fauna, and female silhouettes.
